Dal Makhni

Dal Makhni is one of Zaika’s most beloved dishes — a creamy, indulgent lentil curry that embodies the soul of Punjabi cuisine. Whole black lentils and red kidney beans are simmered for hours in a tomato-based gravy infused with ginger, garlic, and aromatic spices. Finished with a swirl of butter and cream, the result is a velvety, deeply flavored dish that melts in your mouth. Every spoonful offers warmth, richness, and a balance of earthy, smoky notes. Best enjoyed with naan or basmati rice, Zaika’s Dal Makhni is comfort food at its finest — soulful, satisfying, and authentically Indian.
